The web isn’t social. You are.

Here are my top 5 reasons why you should consider being more active on the social web.

1 – You Will Be More Employable

Being a manager myself I can confirm that the first thing we all do when we receive a resume is to go check this person’s online profile or “brand”. If I can’t find you, I will be less likely to hire you.

2 – You Will Make Better Choices

You will be able to connect with experts, professionals or just friends to help and give you advices when you have a decision to make.

3 – You Will Learn So Much (For FREE!)

I basically learned all the things I know about photography through interactions I’ve had with people in online communities. You can do the same with any topics.

4 – You Will Be Informed First

Remember when we used to get the news from… the news? well those days are over my friends. Being active on the social web will enable you to discover whats happening anywhere in the world in real-time.

5 – It Will Change The Way You Interact Offline Too

You will become more curious in your day to day life. Connecting with another human being is one of the greatest feeling we can experiment as “social animals”.

Remember the web isn’t social. You are.

What are the reasons why you are (or not) active on the social web? How does it impact your life?
